I can probably count on both hands the turbo 05 rsx's on my hands. I personally would stay away from Greddy just because I've known 3 people personally that had their's burn their car up.

I'd go with cybernation stage 1 or 2 if I were you.

i have been running a greddy on mine now for weeks and its fine....you just need to know how to install them right andnot burn them up, or not runtoo much boost and blow ur engine, you needto be smart and not try to show off you car.....everything fits perfectly, but there is some wiring differences in the ecu....my friends and i installed mine and it is fine... go with bigger injectors and a fuel rail, cause with a high compression car you will lean out. im running 10 psi now and its at 289whp, leaned out my 440cc injectors, i got 750cc nows but im am also build my block for a 9:1 compression and will be ruinning higher boost...


bottom line dont be stupid with the boost...and make sure all fuel lines and oil lines are tight and there are no leaks...thats how car blow up!!!!

 

I will never buy a complete "turbo Kit". If i were you i would peice together my own turbo kit, you will end up with better parts and it might even come cheaper depending of how good of a shopper you are.

 

if you want to just go turbo i'd go for a complete turbo kit...me i wanted to prove greddy wrong cause they told me i couldnt turbo an 05.....but if your going big like im about to, u want to piece a kit of ur own together....

 

make ur own turbo setup..well, not make, but piece it together urself. are u going to build ur bottom end? high compression + boost=not ur friend.

 

hes right about high comp and boost= no no, but i still think piecing one together is going to be a bit more then buyin a setup, but hey its your money....

 

Since he's looking for a Turbo setup for a 05 RSX-S i agree that it'll prolly cost more to piece a kit together. You might be looking at having an exhaust manifold custom made unless you could find one on ebay but then you'd prolly be limited to selection.

Before i opted for the greddy kit on my EP3 i looked around and found that it was going to be a little less time to just buy the kit than to piece one together and still possibly get the same quality outcome. If you did piece one together there is the greater possiblity that problems could arise due to the mis-matching of parts and what not. I would've been happy with the Greddy kit if i would've had it professionally installed but since the guy said he knew what he was doing and really was "winging" it from past experience, it's caused my motor to take a crap twice... I'm a full believer that it WAS NOT the kit but in installation error... twice.....

 

i hate to repeat myself, but i think djvtoner is right its the the product but the installer.....

 

can any of you guys tell me more about the cybernation stage 1?? Im about to buy an 02 RSX-ST with that kit...8 psi...good? bad? ugly? sorry to ***** your thread, but this is along the same lines, right?!?
